STOVE-LEG FASTENING- Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented June 4, 1907.

Application filed March 26, 1907' Serial N- 364,593-

To all whmn it may concern:

Be it known that I, LASSAR J. GRINBERG, a citizen of the United States,residing at New York city, Manhattan, county and State of New York, haveinvented new and useful Improvements in Stove-Leg Fastening-s, of whichthe following is a specification.

This invention relates to simple and reliable means for removablyattaching the legs to the base-plate of gas, oil and other stoves.

In the accompanying drawing: Figure 1 is a vertical section, partly inside view, of my improved stove leg fastening; Fig. 2 a bottom view ofpart of the base-plate, showing one member of the fastening; Fig. 3 asection through the fastening complete, on line 33, Fig. 2 Fig. 4 asimilar section on line 44, Fig. 2, and Fig. 5 a perspective view of thetop of a stove leg, showing the second member of the fastening.

The base-plate of the stove has a circumferential downwardly extendingflange 11. Near each corner there is cast on the bottom of thebase-plate a socket 12, set in an oblique direction with relation to thebase-plate. This socket has a diagonal slot 13 and a projection 14opposite said slot. The socket opens toward the corner of, thebase-plate and constitutes the first member of the fastening.

The stove leg 15 has an upper flange 16, from the corner of whichprojects inwardly a lug 17 having a diagonal slot 18, such lug againstflange 11 of plate 10, and its slot. 18

embracing projection 14. Slot 18 becoming thus alined with slot 13, bolt19 will pass also through the former, its exposed free end being finallyengaged by a nut 21, which securely locks the leg to the base plate. Itwill be seen that by the means described a reliable fastening isprovided which permits the leg to be readily attached and removed, andis entirely invisible when the stove is in its normal position.

I claim:

In a stove leg fastening, a flanged stove plate having a slotted socketand a projection on the socket, combined with a flanged stove leg havinga slotted lug adapted to embrace said projection, and with a bolt engaing the socket and lug, substantially as speci 'ed.

Signed by me at New York city, (Manhattan,) N. Y., this 25th day ofMarch, 1907.

LASSAR J. GRINBERG.
